Jacko's Fish Bar in Islington

Great batter on the fish. Crisp chunky chips. Cheerful, friendly service. Eat-in limited to 2 stools at window counter on our visit.

Gave it a go, descent size portion, quality lacking, stodgy chips. Won't be back

Normally nice chips but it has been a hit and miss

I've been going here since I was a kid. Just got fish and chips here, it is the best fish and chips in London. Such friendly staff and very well priced for what you get. You have to come here!

Great and fresh fish and chips. Huge portion. Good price. All fresh. Definitely recommend it.

Lovely fish and chips. Chips are always fresh, and plentiful. Lovely owner too.

Great chippy on Essex Road which really stands out!

This is a lucky find for fish and chips lovers. Delicious freshly cooked cod and great chunky chips at very reasonable prices. We will definitely be back again.

Came here on my way home. What can I say... a BIG mistake. Wanted a fresh portion of fish and crispy chips - got few days old soggy chips and rock hard fish that had a funky taste. After eating only a quarter of a portion had a bad feeling in a stomach which lasted for a few hours. Seriously, please think twice eating there.

Great fish and chips, really cheap. Especially considering places like Poppie's charge you close to £15. £5 for a small fish and chips at Mike's! Staff always good for a chat when you are waiting for fresh chips, will definitely be going more often.
